Chromatic Dancer — Body in Motion is part of the ongoing series Leaps of time collection, a body of work focused on rhythm, repetition, and the perception of movement through color. First, the body asserts itself. The dancer becomes a vibrating surface, crossed by chromatic lines.
Color follows muscular tension and extends the trajectory of the gesture.                    Each posture freezes a precise moment.
Yet nothing is still.What came before and what follows remain perceptible:                  a suspension, a beat, a breath. Dance is not presented as a linear narrative, but as sequence of micro-impulses, almost musical. Then, color takes on a central role. It is not decorative. It acts as a visual code, an autonomous language that structures the body and segments space.
Red, blue, yellow, and green shape the composition, mark points of balance, and reveal moments of instability. Thus, this approach resonates with key ideas in contemporary dance, particularly in the work of Merce Cunningham, for whom movement exists independently of narrative.
It also echoes research on the synesthetic relationship between color and movement, widely explored in contemporary visual arts, as documented in the analyses and resources published by the Centre Pompidou. Moreover, digital imagery allows the moment to be fixed with near-photographic precision, while openly embracing a degree of artificiality.
The body becomes a hybrid form, suspended between physical presence and visual construction, between real dance and recomposed memory. Finally, the black background isolates the gesture.
It removes it from any narrative context. The viewer’s attention is drawn to what remains essential: pure movement, bodily tension, and contained energy. Chromatic Dancer – Body in motion directly dialogues with the series Leaps of time collection, where repetition and variation lie at the core of the artistic process, and where color functions both as a measure of time and as a visual signature.
